TOI has agreed to issue Deerfield $110 million aggregate principal amount of 4% secured senior convertible notes (the “Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes will be secured by (i) a security interest in substantially all of the assets of TOI and its subsidiaries and (ii) a pledge by TOI of the equity interest of all its direct and indirect subsidiaries and mature on August 9, 2027, unless earlier converted or redeemed, and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”). The Convertible Notes have an initial conversion price of $8.567, representing an approximate premium of 30% over the closing price of TOI’s Common Stock on August 8, 2022. The Convertible Notes may be converted into Common Stock at any time by the holders thereof, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations. Based on the initial conversion price, the initial number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes is 12,839,967 shares.

The Convertible Notes may be redeemed by TOI at any time, in whole or in part, upon the payment of a 1.95% exit fee and a coupon make-whole equal to the future interest payments and the issuance of warrants to purchase Common Stock in an amount equal to the number of shares of common stock then underlying the redeemed Convertible Notes. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, TOI entered into a facility agreement containing a number of affirmative and negative covenants, including restrictions on the incurrence of indebtedness, liens, consolidations and dispositions and the making of certain dividends, distributions and investments, subject to certain exceptions and exclusions. TOI has also agreed to grant registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes or exercise of the warrants.

The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the sale of the Convertible Notes will be approximately $106 million after deducting estimated expenses. TOI plans to use the proceeds from the Convertible Notes to fund future acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.
